Shangri-La’s first property in Saudi Arabia is nothing less than a luxury landmark located on the Jeddah waterfront.
The Shangri-La’s brand made its debut in Saudi Arabia on the Kingdom’s inaugural Founding Day and what a spectacular occasion it was. Saudi Arabia has become a popular leisure destination since it opened its doors to discerning travellers offering not just historical and cultural sights and sounds but also some spectacular accommodation options to base yourself out of when exploring the Kingdom. Added to that list now is the strategically located Shangri-La Jeddah, blessed by endless views of the Red Sea and set to become one of the city’s most vibrant lifestyle and dining destinations.

Situated in the exclusive Burj Assila, a 64-storey architectural icon and Jeddah’s tallest building – a soaring 260 metres high tower – the hotel forms part of the two-billion Saudi Riyal, 60,015sqm mixed-use development project, which is also home to 116 state-of-the-art Burj Assila Residences available for sale. City’s premier shopping areas and the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, home to the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix – the fastest street circuit in Formula 1, are all located within reachable distance.
